Baby Emma Blog

In keeping with a promise to myself, I’ve decided that the only way to keep an account of the first few weeks of Emma’s birth is to blog it with daily discourse and late night meanderings!

Fast Food

Had a chance to feed Emma some solids tonight! I fed her some Apple and Strawberry puree stuff and you should see her face, it was like that guy who won the competition in the Uncle Toby's Fruit Rollups commercial!!! But eat it she did...

Put a deposit down for a hire costume for the Christmas work party. The theme is...superheroes and villians! The costume I chose...Spiderman! Okay, the only reason why I mention this is because when they're old enough to read this I want the kids to see that dad isn't just this quaint old fuddy duddy, but an interesting dude with a checkered past and therefore worthy of their admiration and respect...okay, a guy can dream, can't he!!??

The twins are at their grandparents tonight, which means Lill and I may actually sleep in tomorrow! Sleeping in...what a strange concept!

ODD SPOT: The word "Checkmate" in chess comes from the Persian phrase "Shah Mat," which means, "the king is dead".

P.S: I'm sure I could work an Elvis joke into this...
